Problem wasn't Carl Smith, Jim Mora restricted the playbook and under penalty of termination Smith's couldn't deviated from script as Mora didn't trust his players...
Wow! I missed that. No way Smith could have been that vanilla.

No, that's totally legit. Had been in New Orleans all day and was driving pass the Dome heading home when I caught that show; and I was thinking O' Boy, this'll make the drive go by quick...

Truthfully, I've never been a big Bobby Hebert fan, but the way he stopped those calls and disclosed "what you think you know, you really don't know" and that Mora, not Smith, was the cause...

Hebert earned a whole 'nother level of respect from me that day in not only the way he handled it on-air, but callers, waiting to exact their pound of flesh from Smith, instead Thanked Smith and Hebert...

Hebert said he still respected Mora for what he did to get the Saints to respectability, but at the same time, didn't care that Mora had never really publicly took the hit and let Smith take the heat instead...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
